Historical Context and Product Positioning
The MEINL X-Hat fits into the range of hardware accessories designed to modernize a kit's ergonomics. The idea is simple: to offer an additional hi-hat point without a pedal, in order to multiply playing zones, facilitate hybrid setups, and meet the needs of drummers who stack cymbals or want an immediately accessible auxiliary hi-hat.
Target Audience
This auxiliary hi-hat arm is aimed at intermediate to expert drummers looking to optimize their setup for stage, studio, or complex configurations. It is especially useful in rock, metal, funk, fusion, and contemporary music styles, whenever you need a closed or semi-open hi-hat permanently, a percussive stack, or a different striking point without moving your main hi-hat.

Questions frequently asked
Does the Meinl MXH X-Hat mount without a pedal?
The clamp allows mounting on existing hardware and holds a pair of cymbals in a stationary position without the use of a pedal.
How to adjust the cymbal spacing on this X-Hat?
A tension adjustment determines the gap between the top cymbal and the bottom cymbal. A tight setting favors a crisp “chick” sound. A wider opening provides more air and a broader sound.
Can a stack be used on the Meinl MXH stand?
The stand is designed to hold a pair of hi-hat cymbals or a fixed percussion stack on the kit.
What sound does a fixed hi-hat produce?
Depending on the cymbals installed, the fixed mount stabilizes their contact and promotes a consistent attack. The opening adjustment allows for a closed articulation or a more expressive sound.
For which drum styles is this auxiliary hi-hat stand suitable?
This setup meets the needs of rock, metal, funk, fusion, and contemporary music kits, with a closed or semi-open hi-hat immediately accessible.
